If I were you, I would listen to the joining instructions and only bring what is absolutely necessary.

The thing about infinite load compared to finite intensity/volume is that as load increases, you approach your intensity/volume limits faster. Also, as conditioning improves, would you not be increasing that finite ceiling of volume/intensity?

I'm not seeing any of the dynamically generated stuff on the main page. (quotes, pic of the moment, last uploaded pic... that kind of thing)

Now about over training in regards to "Greasing the Groove" (Pavel's plan there, doing many sets throughout the day) The way it works is by not going to failure. If hitting 30 is failure, you go to 25 or so. By not going to failure, you aren't going to experience the over training that you...

I don't think anyone was saying whether or not his claim of PTSD was true or not, just the validity of it as an excuse.

Strength training is also important for CV/CP (cardiovascular and cardiopulmonary) endurance and stamina because more strength means more potential CV/CP end. and Stamina. For true strength training, keep it in 3RM and 5RM (RM= rep max) lifts. (for 5-7 sets...) for muscular endurance step it up...

Probably not much you can do other then find some crappy job to do in the meantime. It's only 6 weeks so no need to get too picky. Kind of a raw deal but also not the end of the world. If you aren't already, you could get the education grant or whatever it's called. I think it's good for 2k/yr...

Like a bad porno? Who knows. :D

Better then free... she made 29k out of the deal :D

I don't care who trains at my gym as long as they aren't using the squat stands for wrist curls! (or any curls for that matter...)

I think that's if you are already a member. I doubt the grandfather there would apply to new recruits.

"Helicopter Gunships" sounds too aggressive... could we not find a more fluffy PC name for them? Then the "tinfoil-hat wearing, tree hugging, granola munching, appeasment minded, surrender monkeys" might not be so taken aback by this idea... Maybe "Positive Reinforcement for Aeriel Supply runs"?  ;)

<hijack> I dropped off my application with the BCD's in Kelowna 25 Jan 07, got sworn in Tuesday 12 June 07. Also a brand new Pte(R) and damn proud/excited to be here! :D </hijack>

Have you recently increased the volume of running you do? Dramatically increased I mean. If so, give it a few days rest (keep stretching tho) and then jump back in. Make sure to stretch some before but a ton after a run (when you're nice and warm and whatnot). I found that once I increased the...

I like the sentence length on this one better there Zell... Or does it not apply to Civvies?

Like all physical training, routine is the enemy. Make sure you mix up your running days with sprints, fartleks, intervals, long distance, medium distance, hills, etc... Don't let your body adapt to any 1 thing, and before you know it you will have adapted to taking on any possiblity.

There was a brief mention on Canada AM this morning before I left for work.

Well despite the cost of living it's still quite popular... My wife and I are buying a house in Kelowna and it's by no means "cheap" here. But we are making sacrifices and changing our lifestyles accordingly to make it possible. That coupled with a 40 year amortization on the mortgage makes...
